'Recapitation' of Garfield Statue at Hiram

Hiram College this week held a "recapitation" ceremony to celebrate the return of the head on a statue of President James A. Garfield. Garfield was a student, instructor and administrator at the college before his ill-fated presidency. A statue honoring him was unveiled on campus in May and was mysteriously decapitated days later. The head was found and returned anonymously to local police officers.
